NATO Decides to Dispose of Toxic Ammunition near Russia borders

Several toxic torpedoes were destroyed by the military of the North Atlantic Alliance in the waters of the North Sea, and in close proximity to the territorial waters of Russia.

This is reported by the Norwegian media.

According to the media, these torpedoes once armed a frigate of the Norwegian Naval Forces KNM “Helge Ingstad”, which crashed during the large-scale NATO military exercises “Trident Juncture”. Then the ship collided with Sola TS, which was leaving Stur port.

Of course, it was unsafe to leave ammunition on a submerged ship. Usually, in such cases, shells are transported to a special landfill, where they are eliminated without harm to the environment, but this time NATO decided to go another way, destroying torpedoes directly at sea, which led to water pollution in both Norway and Russia.
